read between the lines
cullum in the flesh went for jamie cullum's concert in sg's concert hall tonight. he was so worth it! he was definitely a gifted entertainer, what with his energetic on-stage persona as well as his looseness with concert hall rules (he brought in alcohol and gave the us the green light to take out any of our smuggled drinks too, and halfway through he took off his shirt and tie to reveal a t-shirt).the concert ended at 10.15pm instead of 9.30pm 'cos he kept coming back for more encores. he even went to the opposite end of my row (second last row of the arena area) to sing cry me a river (both the julie london and justin timberlake versions)! at that point i was definitely kicking myself for not bringing my camera on the day itself (i was unable to rush home to get it, having gone to the concert just after work). i mentally kicked myself even more when jamie went back up to the front and made it a mosh pit (he told us to rush as a big crowd to the front so that concert staff wouldn't be able to stop us -- thankfully they took no action). at least i got to record his final song all at sea (my favourite) on my phone =D although i can't transfer it anywhere else since my phone's so ancient it uses infrared and i don't have the cable for it. i made the queue for his autograph too before it got cut off =) . he drew a piano next to his signature on one of the back pages of the pursuit's liner notes...i've no idea if he did that for the rest, but to me it just made my day ^_^. i also managed to snap a picture of him signing autographs with my ancient phone (i love it all the same 'cos i was quite taken with the fashionable ad that promoted it -- happens to be the same phone bella uses in twilight). thanks jamie for giving us our money's worth and bringing cheer to what has been an otherwise challenging week for me =D |
